Speaker 1: yet the fund keeps getting bigger. Jay Peace Shadrick. Time
0:23
Speaker 1: marches on and I am due a visit to the optometrist.
0:27
Speaker 1: Welcome in its Jaguars Happy Hour on this Thursday afternoon.
0:32
Speaker 1: It's preseason week three. My name's J. P. Shadrick. We've
0:35
Speaker 1: got a busy show ahead. A quarterback has been named
0:39
Speaker 1: for the Jacksonville Jaguars. We'll hear from Trevor Lawrence and
0:43
Speaker 1: get his thoughts on being named the starter for the Jags.
0:46
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer as well. The offense is still looking for
0:48
Speaker 1: the end zone, at least the starting offense. They have
0:51
Speaker 1: not found paydhurt in the preseason. They would like to
0:55
Speaker 1: find pay dirt before the preseason is over. We'll hear
0:57
Speaker 1: from Trevor on that as well. A little defensive talk
0:59
Speaker 1: coming up later the preseason week three approach, especially after
1:04
Speaker 1: the injury to Travis E. T and Junior. Does it
1:06
Speaker 1: change at all for Urban Meyer? All signs point to know.
1:11
Speaker 1: We'll hear from the head coach on that also. Jeff
1:13
Speaker 1: Logman joins us at four fifteen today we'll get his
1:15
Speaker 1: thoughts on everything going on. Network coverage of Jaguars Happy
1:18
Speaker 1: Hour at five o'clock will also here again from Jeff
1:21
Speaker 1: Darlington who joined the Jags drivetime show this morning, and
1:24
Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks earlier this week Jaguars analyst, and get his
1:28
Speaker 1: thoughts on what the Jags should do or could do,
1:31
Speaker 1: or might do or might not do. Now without Travis E.
1:34
Speaker 1: T n around, let's get to today's news. The Jags
1:38
Speaker 1: back on the practice field again today, the final official
1:41
Speaker 1: training camp practice, in the last one open full time
1:46
Speaker 1: to the media that were assembled today. Tomorrow, it's only
1:50
Speaker 1: open for thirty minutes at the start of practice and
1:53
Speaker 1: that will be the regular game week routine that starts
1:56
Speaker 1: tomorrow on the practice fields here. Last week, the game
2:00
Speaker 1: prep week started for the Jaguars, so they were looking
2:03
Speaker 1: at the other teams, um you know, doing offense defense
2:07
Speaker 1: against the other team's scheme or some sort of scheme
2:10
Speaker 1: of preseason scheme. Same idea this week for Urban Meyer
2:13
Speaker 1: and the coaching staff installing some plans against the Cowboys.
2:17
Speaker 1: Looks in practice they haven't found the end zone yet?
2:20
Speaker 1: Are they starting offense? Of course, the approached this week
2:23
Speaker 1: likely to see some time from the starters early. It
2:26
Speaker 1: feels like find some success and then maybe getting the
2:29
Speaker 1: end zone and get them out of there. And it
2:31
Speaker 1: sounds like Urban feels the same way, even with E.
2:34
Speaker 1: T n s injury the other day on Monday night.
2:38
Speaker 1: You know, once a players game ready, he said, it's
2:42
Speaker 1: done for the preseason for them. But then he listed
2:44
Speaker 1: only about four or five players that were game ready.
2:47
Speaker 1: I means there's about seventy five others that I guess
2:50
Speaker 1: are not, and you will see a good amount of
2:52
Speaker 1: those on Sunday in Dallas when the Jaguars faced the Cowboys.
2:57
Speaker 1: The biggest news this week, of course, Trevor Law It's
3:00
Speaker 1: name the starting quarterback by head coach Urban Meyer. The
3:02
Speaker 1: announcement came down Wednesday officially in Urban explained, I did,
3:07
Speaker 1: but you know, there's uh it's a three week preseason
3:11
Speaker 1: as opposed to four. We do have a bye week afterwards,
3:13
Speaker 1: but I think, um, as we continue, it's uh matter
3:19
Speaker 1: of a little bit of repetition now. So we wanted
3:21
Speaker 1: him to earn it, as we do with every position
3:25
Speaker 1: we felt he has. After the last nice performance was uh,
3:30
Speaker 1: it was good, obviously not great, but we you know,
3:32
Speaker 1: we didn't run the ball very well, but but I
3:35
Speaker 1: kind of my mind had that as after the second
3:38
Speaker 1: preseason that we kind of have to to get someone
3:41
Speaker 1: ready to play in three weeks. Yeah, three weeks away,
3:44
Speaker 1: one more week of prep to go, getting ready for
3:46
Speaker 1: a game this Sunday, and then two weeks down. I'm
3:49
Speaker 1: not sure the practice schedule yet in the dead period
3:53
Speaker 1: or if you will, between the final preseason game and
3:56
Speaker 1: regular season week one, you know, it'll be likely that
4:00
Speaker 1: the week of week one Monday, tuesdays of players off
4:03
Speaker 1: day and than Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, But the week before
4:05
Speaker 1: that is the one that's a little bit up in
4:07
Speaker 1: the air. Still. Either way, it's three weeks to get
4:10
Speaker 1: him ready now for week one, starting with the prep
4:14
Speaker 1: this week. Of course, a Trevor Lawrence, as you would expect,
4:17
Speaker 1: it was excited to move forward. Yeah, that was good man.
4:22
Speaker 1: We talked about our QB room and um man, we
4:24
Speaker 1: just have a we have a great group, so I'm
4:26
Speaker 1: really excited for the opportunity. Doesn't really change anything though,
4:29
Speaker 1: still got the same task in front of us. Gotta
4:31
Speaker 1: get a lot better um individually, as a team, as
4:35
Speaker 1: an offense. So just looking forward to going to work
4:37
Speaker 1: this week. You know, it brings some clarity, which is
4:39
Speaker 1: nice going forward, but it really doesn't change much. But yeah,
4:43
Speaker 1: I'm really excited for the opportunity, grateful for it. Trevor
4:46
Speaker 1: Lawrence on Monday night made his Jaguars national TV debut,
4:51
Speaker 1: if you will, and went fourteen often yards. He was
4:54
Speaker 1: sacked once to seventy three point three rating, ran one
4:58
Speaker 1: time for nine yards and was kind of helicopter down
5:01
Speaker 1: like John Elway. It felt like on that play it
5:04
Speaker 1: was third down. He wanted to get that first down.
5:06
Speaker 1: He said, you can and you can argue that one
5:08
Speaker 1: all day. It's the preseason, but that's Trevor for you.
5:11
Speaker 1: He's gonna go after it. And so far in two games,
5:13
Speaker 1: four yards through the year, he's been sacked three times
5:17
Speaker 1: in the preseason. He was hit a good bit in
5:19
Speaker 1: last week's Game two, and that was a little bit
5:21
Speaker 1: of a concern obviously after the game. I think he
5:24
Speaker 1: was officially hit by the Saints defense four times in
5:27
Speaker 1: the in the book after the game, I think he
5:30
Speaker 1: was pushed another time, sacked once hit on that run,
5:34
Speaker 1: So it took a little bit of contact last week.
5:36
Speaker 1: The other really big news this week of course, running
5:39
Speaker 1: back Travis Etn Jr. Is now done for the year.
5:42
Speaker 1: He's on injured reserve, reported to be a list frank
5:45
Speaker 1: issue and his left foot requiring surgery, and it's obviously
5:48
Speaker 1: significant because he's down for the year. Urban Meyer discussed
5:51
Speaker 1: his absence Wednesday. That was a shot jaw, that one. Um,
5:57
Speaker 1: it was really coming on in practice and we're he
6:00
Speaker 1: saw his big playability and private not in the game yet,
6:03
Speaker 1: um tough injury. How do we fill that? You know,
6:09
Speaker 1: we're still in that conversation right now. Now in the
6:12
Speaker 1: second hour of Jaguars Happy Hour today, we'll hear from
6:14
Speaker 1: NFL media analyst Bucky Brooks and Jaguars Dot Com senior
6:17
Speaker 1: writer John Osier and get their thoughts off yesterday's Huddle
6:20
Speaker 1: Up show and discuss how the Jackson either fill that
6:23
Speaker 1: role or figure out something else and and what the
6:27
Speaker 1: options could be for that running back slash weapon position
6:30
Speaker 1: that RB Meyer had in mind with e. T n
6:33
Speaker 1: who is no longer around, a big blow for this offense.
6:35
Speaker 1: Now to the final piece of the offense in the
6:37
Speaker 1: preseason scoring points, namely touchdowns. They haven't done that with
6:42
Speaker 1: the first team yet in the first two preseason games,
6:45
Speaker 1: and the quarterback says all is, well, don't panic. Yeah,
6:49
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's frustrating, but also we just gotta
6:51
Speaker 1: stick together and keep playing. Um, we're gonna figure it out.
6:54
Speaker 1: And I'm really confident in that. So we got a
6:57
Speaker 1: bunch of guys that are that are putting the work
6:59
Speaker 1: in that we're gonna do everything it takes to to
7:01
Speaker 1: get on the right track. So you know, I'm confident
7:03
Speaker 1: that I'm not worried. Obviously, you'd like to score more
7:06
Speaker 1: points than we have, for sure, but all stuff that
7:08
Speaker 1: we can build on and we know we need to
7:10
Speaker 1: get better at. So it's just a matter of doing
7:12
Speaker 1: it and going out there and practicing it. Urban Meyer
7:14
Speaker 1: was a little more straightforward and to the point than
7:17
Speaker 1: Trevor on this instant, saying we need to score some
7:20
Speaker 1: damn points. And that was the sentence that rbin Meyer
7:23
Speaker 1: said the other day when he was asked about it. Obviously,
7:26
Speaker 1: it will be a focus this week to get some
7:28
Speaker 1: success early and get in the end zone. And they
7:31
Speaker 1: did have a couple of sustained drives right before halftime
7:33
Speaker 1: last week, which was good to see, and they settled
7:36
Speaker 1: for field goal of one of the times and the
7:38
Speaker 1: missed a field goal. Another. Let's move over to the
7:40
Speaker 1: defensive side of the football now. The Saints offensive scores,
7:43
Speaker 1: of course, scored twice with their starting group, with Jamis
7:47
Speaker 1: Winston making the start. Taysom Hill got some time later
7:50
Speaker 1: with the first team. In that game, Marques Callaway caught
7:53
Speaker 1: two touchdown passes with incredible catches. Both times. The coverage
7:58
Speaker 1: wasn't too bad, but they just couldn't finish at the
8:00
Speaker 1: moment of truth, Jacque Griffin in the front left corner
8:02
Speaker 1: of the end zone and then later Griffin and Tyson
8:05
Speaker 1: Campbell in the middle of the end zone. Safety ray
8:08
Speaker 1: Shawn Jenkins is in that defensive backfield as well for
8:11
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, and he enters his fifth NFL season, and
8:15
Speaker 1: we heard from him after the game in New Orleans
8:17
Speaker 1: and he was asked what he really looks for in
8:20
Speaker 1: teammates during training camp. My thing is in the preseason,
8:24
Speaker 1: I'm looking more for um you know, like Warriors or
8:29
Speaker 1: or you know, those dogs that I need to really
8:31
Speaker 1: just um um uh have on my team. In the preseason,
8:36
Speaker 1: you know, there's not a lot of plays being called.
8:39
Speaker 1: Um You've got so many guys in so you just
8:42
Speaker 1: never you don't know who's here or who's not, you know,
8:44
Speaker 1: So it's just a filling out process right now. Um
8:48
Speaker 1: I it's a huge difference from now to the regular season.
8:50
Speaker 1: I mean, Wade, a huge difference, you know. So, I mean, uh,
8:55
Speaker 1: we still got some work to do. But at the
8:57
Speaker 1: end of the day, you know, we're still trying to
9:00
Speaker 1: just fit in those missing pieces right now in um
9:03
Speaker 1: you know, preseasons are perfect time to do that. He's
9:06
Speaker 1: one of the players that Herbert Meyer listed as game
9:08
Speaker 1: ready the other day, so you might not see much
9:11
Speaker 1: of Rayshon Jenkins this Sunday in Dallas against the Cowboys.
9:15
Speaker 1: The other safety spot, though, is still up for grabs.
9:19
Speaker 1: In the latest depth chart, there are still those four
9:21
Speaker 1: co number ones that was as of Tuesday. At least.
9:25
Speaker 1: We'll discuss all that coming up with Logoman here in
9:29
Speaker 1: just a little bit. It is the last chance this
9:31
Speaker 1: week for players to show something on tape. The bubble
9:34
Speaker 1: guys on the roster. It's a huge week for them
9:36
Speaker 1: because it's the last opportunity and then we'll see what happens.
9:40
Speaker 1: The final cuts from eight down to fifty three are
9:42
Speaker 1: this coming Tuesday. With just a little less than two
9:46
Speaker 1: weeks to go until opening day, so uh as we
9:50
Speaker 1: said that battle should be solidified after this weekend at
9:53
Speaker 1: Strong Safety, some other spots that are up for grabs.
9:56
Speaker 1: You know, as of the last depth chart on Tuesday.
9:59
Speaker 1: What kind of player though, does Urban Meyer want to see?
10:03
Speaker 1: He broke that down earlier this week. I just gotta
10:06
Speaker 1: keep swinging, man, We're gonna swing that. I just told them,
10:08
Speaker 1: I'm looking for fighters, and I'm looking for competitors. We
10:12
Speaker 1: will have a locker room full of competitors and I
10:14
Speaker 1: think we got a bunch of them, um, but I'm
10:17
Speaker 1: learning a lot about them, like they're a lot to
10:19
Speaker 1: learn a lot about us. Yeah, looking for fighters. Gotta
10:22
Speaker 1: keep swinging all that, and you gotta do a lot
10:24
Speaker 1: of different things, especially if you're on the bubble this week.
10:28
Speaker 1: And you know, if if you're on the bubble this week,
10:31
Speaker 1: you've probably performed at least pretty well the first couple
10:34
Speaker 1: of games. Those those reps certainly matter, I think a
10:37
Speaker 1: little bit more than the practice field reps. And then
10:40
Speaker 1: you gotta I think, step out and have a day
10:42
Speaker 1: on Sunday in Dallas, and it's not just in one spot,
10:46
Speaker 1: it's on special teams too, and that's of very great
10:50
Speaker 1: importance to Urban Meyer. What can you contribute, how much
10:53
Speaker 1: can you increase your value to this football team into
10:56
Speaker 1: yourself And we'll be watching that of course, this coming
11:00
Speaker 1: Sunday in Dallas. The final chance for a lot of
11:02
Speaker 1: these guys. Two. It's a huge cut too, I mean,
11:05
Speaker 1: and now, of course last year is from ninety to
11:07
Speaker 1: fifty three and one big swoop. This year they're paring
11:09
Speaker 1: it down, you know, five the first cut to eighty
11:13
Speaker 1: this past Tuesday, and then now the big one coming
11:16
Speaker 1: up this next Tuesday. And uh, it's it's a tough one,
11:20
Speaker 1: and it's the first time that Irban Myers really had
11:22
Speaker 1: to go through something like that. He talked about that
11:24
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. The one this next Tuesday
11:28
Speaker 1: is the real big one, because these guys have been
11:31
Speaker 1: with you really the whole time through and you got
11:34
Speaker 1: to tell some guys that they're not good enough to
11:35
Speaker 1: make your football team. But one last chance under the
11:39
Speaker 1: bright lights this Sunday in Dallas. We've got putting ahead.
11:42
Speaker 1: We're just getting started on Jaguars Happy Hour. Jeff Laghman

Speaker 1: It's pretty good. What kind of cake? I don't know.
17:14
Speaker 1: That's a good question. It's a good question. Need to
17:17
Speaker 1: work on that. Well. I'm sure her mom has got
17:20
Speaker 1: it covered, sure she does. What does game ready mean
17:24
Speaker 1: to you? Urban just talking? I think it's self explanatory
17:28
Speaker 1: to some extent, but I think it also kind of
17:30
Speaker 1: goes to what the coaches confidence isn't a player because
17:36
Speaker 1: that's from Urban's perspective, and he wants to have a
17:40
Speaker 1: comfort level with with the players to where he terms
17:43
Speaker 1: them game ready. Look as Marvin Jones nearly game ready.
17:47
Speaker 1: I mean, this is your ten for Marvin Jones. Not
17:51
Speaker 1: he's game ready. He's not nearly game ready. He's ready
17:54
Speaker 1: to go. Is Urban Meyer game ready? That's a great question, right,
17:59
Speaker 1: I mean, well, I mean he hasn't he hasn't coached
18:02
Speaker 1: in the National Football League level, so he's probably not
18:06
Speaker 1: quite game ready yet. But I'm sure he's gonna be
18:08
Speaker 1: there at some point. But I think that that is
18:11
Speaker 1: just a term that he uses with his comfort level.
18:13
Speaker 1: And when it's a new team and it's a lot
18:16
Speaker 1: of new faces to him, you have to have a
18:19
Speaker 1: level of comfort with all of these players, and it's
18:22
Speaker 1: not hard. It's hard to achieve that, especially in the
18:25
Speaker 1: National Football League because you're limited on what you can
18:27
Speaker 1: do from a time standpoint and a number of practices standpoint,
18:31
Speaker 1: and you have a limited amount of preseason games. You
18:34
Speaker 1: don't have a track record with all of these guys.
18:36
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's it's it's all personal perspective. The way
18:40
Speaker 1: he represents in my opinion. You know, it's the quarterback,
18:44
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is the starter finally. Uh. You know a
18:47
Speaker 1: lot of fans, if you hear shot, some of the
18:50
Speaker 1: calls are like, why don't they do this two weeks ago?
18:53
Speaker 1: This and that. Well, it's done now, and there are
18:56
Speaker 1: three weeks. There were three weeks at that time until
18:59
Speaker 1: the regular season, and it's all Trevor now. I look,
19:02
Speaker 1: I I don't have any A lot of people seem
19:05
Speaker 1: to have like a big issue with that. He waited, right,
19:08
Speaker 1: That's strange to me. I don't understand, and I don't
19:10
Speaker 1: understand what the big deal is. I mean, you let
19:13
Speaker 1: players compete. Was he clearly going to be the starter? Maybe?
19:19
Speaker 1: But I think you also have to be able to
19:21
Speaker 1: allow the player to compete to show his teammates that
19:26
Speaker 1: he is the best option. Because I hate to say this,
19:30
Speaker 1: but I've I've been in the locker room, okay, where
19:34
Speaker 1: you have a new quarterback that comes in and the
19:37
Speaker 1: staff is all excited about him taking over the starting job,
19:41
Speaker 1: and the job gets given to him without any kind
19:46
Speaker 1: of competition or or a period of time to where
19:50
Speaker 1: the players that are gonna have to play with this
19:52
Speaker 1: guy can see it and believe it. And we were
19:58
Speaker 1: and we're gonna say we're of this is go ahead
20:02
Speaker 1: and do it because it's not a big It was
20:03
Speaker 1: in New York and we had we had Kenny O'Brien,
20:05
Speaker 1: who was a former first round pick, was our starting quarterback.
20:09
Speaker 1: We draft Brownie Nagle in the second round. Okay, the
20:12
Speaker 1: first year, Brownie Nagle sits to watch year too. Brownie
20:15
Speaker 1: Nagle comes in. They hold Kenny out, okay, to allow
20:20
Speaker 1: Brownie Nagle to take the job. And we were all like,
20:23
Speaker 1: he's not as good as Kenny. I mean, maybe eventually
20:27
Speaker 1: he will be, but look, we gotta win now. And
20:30
Speaker 1: it didn't happen that way. And I think the players
20:33
Speaker 1: resented it because there never was a competition and the
20:37
Speaker 1: job was handed to Brownie Nagle. And I think it's
20:41
Speaker 1: it's not good for the player's relationship to the person
20:45
Speaker 1: that gets handed the job. But with Trevor, Lawrence wasn't
20:50
Speaker 1: handed the job. There was a period of time that
20:52
Speaker 1: to where they competed. It was very clear I think
20:55
Speaker 1: to everybody that watched players, media staff, that ever, Lawrence
21:00
Speaker 1: was the superior player. That's why he was the first
21:03
Speaker 1: overall picking the draft, and so now by naming him, okay,
21:06
Speaker 1: now you've got three weeks to get him all the
21:08
Speaker 1: reps ready for the opener in Houston. I don't have
21:11
Speaker 1: any problem with it all. I don't think there was
21:12
Speaker 1: anything bad about it, and I've heard people say, oh,
21:16
Speaker 1: they should have been getting him all the reps anyway. Look,
21:19
Speaker 1: he still can take reps without actually participating in the play.
21:24
Speaker 1: For example, when Trevor Lawrence is taking the snaps, he's
21:28
Speaker 1: taken the reps. When Trevor Lawrence is not in the
21:30
Speaker 1: huddle and not in the center, he has the call
21:32
Speaker 1: in his ear. Okay, In practice, Darryl Bebel uses the
21:36
Speaker 1: radio communication handset, so so the quarterbacks get used to
21:39
Speaker 1: that he hears the call well when he is sitting
21:42
Speaker 1: there watching. You can take mental reps, and sometime mental
21:46
Speaker 1: reps are better because it gives you a little bit
21:48
Speaker 1: different perspective than actually being there taking the snap and
21:52
Speaker 1: then executing it with yourself. So I don't have any
21:56
Speaker 1: issue with whatsoever. Jaguar is happy. R JP shadow with
21:59
Speaker 1: Jeff log Ha been earlier this week. Logs, you guys
22:02
Speaker 1: were traveling back on Tuesday, so I jumped on Jaguars
22:06
Speaker 1: today with Mike Dempsey and two hours of that stuff,
22:13
Speaker 1: and a lot of those two hours, some of the
22:15
Speaker 1: calls were all the play calling is atrocious in the
22:19
Speaker 1: preseason on offense work, right, I mean, is it they
22:26
Speaker 1: haven't scored points yet? And I get that they would
22:28
Speaker 1: like to score touchdowns? Who doesn't three points in the
22:31
Speaker 1: first half? Are you concerned with that? The play calling
22:34
Speaker 1: and all? It's too early, right, it's preseason week to
22:37
Speaker 1: play calling. You can't look at play calling in the
22:40
Speaker 1: preseason and sit there and go what are we doing?
22:42
Speaker 1: And it's kind of my point there there is no
22:47
Speaker 1: game planning that happens in the preseason. Now, look, you're
22:52
Speaker 1: fair to criticize once you get to the regular season
22:56
Speaker 1: when they're when they're playing their calling play for downing
23:01
Speaker 1: distance and et cetera. In some cases in the preseason
23:04
Speaker 1: they have a script of plays that they're gonna run
23:06
Speaker 1: regardless of the downing distance. Now did they have that,
23:09
Speaker 1: I don't know, But I mean there's some teams that
23:11
Speaker 1: actually do it that way. Here's what we want to
23:13
Speaker 1: work on, and we're gonna call these plays because that's
23:15
Speaker 1: what we're gonna do. And so I'm not a big
23:19
Speaker 1: proponent of criticizing. And here's the other thing, g P,
23:23
Speaker 1: because this goes along the same lines. I got friends
23:26
Speaker 1: that you know, we all have a little group text
23:27
Speaker 1: and you know, and of course the Jaguars come up
23:29
Speaker 1: occasionally and and and just like many people, they watch
23:33
Speaker 1: the preseason game and they're concerned, and look, I'm concerned, uh,
23:38
Speaker 1: but I'm not freaking out o, thank you. And the
23:41
Speaker 1: reason why is that I've been on teams and I've
23:44
Speaker 1: watched teams that have been terrible in the preseason. Some
23:48
Speaker 1: of those terrible teams in the preseason keep that status
23:52
Speaker 1: quo when they get to the regular season they're not
23:54
Speaker 1: very good. But sometimes that's not what they look like.
23:59
Speaker 1: For example, the Baltimore Ravens have been undefeated for nineteen
24:03
Speaker 1: games now in the preseason, going twenty to break the
24:07
Speaker 1: record the all time record held by Vince Lombardies Packers. Okay,
24:12
Speaker 1: have the Ravens been undefeated throughout the preseason, No, but
24:15
Speaker 1: they've been really good. They've been really good. You can
24:18
Speaker 1: go look at some other teams in the National Football
24:20
Speaker 1: League that have been perennial losers. Some of them have
24:24
Speaker 1: winning records in the preseason. Is that an indicator of
24:27
Speaker 1: the performance that's gonna happen in the regular season. No,
24:29
Speaker 1: it is not. I mean that's here. I mean we've
24:31
Speaker 1: we've had some winning preseasons, and but you want to
24:34
Speaker 1: have them taste success and you want to see them
24:36
Speaker 1: have a rhythm. It's not like you need to see
24:38
Speaker 1: them go out there and score twenty okay, are twenty
24:41
Speaker 1: one points in the first quarter and go, you know, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown,
24:44
Speaker 1: drive about drive the ball and score once. Yes, I'm good.
24:48
Speaker 1: And it's uh, you want to see them get into
24:51
Speaker 1: some kind of a rhythm. One of the main things
24:53
Speaker 1: it seems to be a problem with this offense right
24:55
Speaker 1: now is that they're just not finding any rhythm in
24:57
Speaker 1: the running game. And when you have a young quarterback,
25:00
Speaker 1: you've got to be able to have a running game
25:02
Speaker 1: that's going to help you out and give you some
25:05
Speaker 1: some semblance of balance. And right now in the preseason,
25:08
Speaker 1: the running game is not working. Is at the offensive line,
25:11
Speaker 1: is at the running backs, Uh, whatever you want to
25:14
Speaker 1: call it, it's not working right now in the preseason.
25:16
Speaker 1: But at some point you've gotta have it work. They've
25:18
Speaker 1: got they missed six of their offensive line the starters
25:22
Speaker 1: were out left tackle, left guards. But but you know
25:25
Speaker 1: the counterpoint that, Okay, the Cleveland Browns came in here,
25:29
Speaker 1: you know what, week and a half ago and did
25:31
Speaker 1: not start an offensive line. But uh, did they come
25:34
Speaker 1: out and run the ball effectively? Not really, okay, because
25:37
Speaker 1: the Jaguars defense did a good job, but they were
25:39
Speaker 1: able to move the ball with a second team offense
25:42
Speaker 1: against the first team defense. So I don't know if
25:45
Speaker 1: you sit there and you go, Okay, well it's preseason, no, Well,
25:47
Speaker 1: you still want to see him runna But I don't
25:49
Speaker 1: care if they're missing a few starters or not. I mean,
25:51
Speaker 1: you still want to see them run the ball, because
25:52
Speaker 1: you know what, at some point during the regular season,
25:55
Speaker 1: you're gonna be missing starters, and those guys that step
25:58
Speaker 1: in like Ben Barts walk a little like they did
26:02
Speaker 1: last week, they're gonna have to be able to play
26:04
Speaker 1: well Shatley. I mean, those guys, shall we have been
26:06
Speaker 1: a starter in this league before. I mean, there's there's nothing,
26:09
Speaker 1: no reason why they shouldn't been able to run ball
26:11
Speaker 1: better than what they've been doing so far in both games.
26:14
Speaker 1: Plenty ahead, we've got some defensive talk when we come
26:16
Speaker 1: back logs. That's your side of the ball. I like it.
26:19
Speaker 1: I know you do. Talk to Joe Colin today, did
26:21
Speaker 1: I did? Oh? Well, maybe you will give us a
26:24

30:40
Speaker 1: Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Looking forward to that final full
30:44
Speaker 1: camp practice today officially and they're back to a what
30:49
Speaker 1: would be a regular season media schedule at least to
30:52
Speaker 1: go watch for about twenty minutes them stretch that's going
30:56
Speaker 1: to be about it moving ahead, that's all right. I mean,
30:59
Speaker 1: look to the practice today was uppers, which you know
31:03
Speaker 1: after and I'm interesting because I don't know the exact
31:06
Speaker 1: rules how they work in the next two weeks. You know,
31:08
Speaker 1: you have rules that guide you once you get to
31:11
Speaker 1: the regular season as far as the number of padded
31:13
Speaker 1: practices that you're allowed to have. What is it for this,
31:17
Speaker 1: because it's this is new. Is this the in between window?
31:21
Speaker 1: What are the rules? How many times can you practice?
31:23
Speaker 1: You have two weeks? You know, how many days after
31:25
Speaker 1: the players have to have It's it's kind of new
31:27
Speaker 1: ground for the NFL here. But but I like the
31:30
Speaker 1: idea of having a two week window from the last
31:35
Speaker 1: preseason game to the first opening weekend. I guess you
31:39
Speaker 1: could say, because in reality it's not two weeks away
31:41
Speaker 1: because the Thursday Night game starts. There's well before, which
31:45
Speaker 1: I think is uh Tampa Dallas and that the Thursday
31:49
Speaker 1: night game, which is like the opening night Thursday Night
31:52
Speaker 1: Football Dallas and Tampa Bay and Raymond James Thursday September nine,
31:58
Speaker 1: that the first big Sunday is the twelfth. Yeah, So
32:02
Speaker 1: in reality, it's uh, it's less than our exact exactly
32:05
Speaker 1: two weeks away from tonight, and that that'll be a
32:07
Speaker 1: good football game watching the Tampa Bay Bucks and the
32:10
Speaker 1: Cowboys that I ought to be good. Let's go to
32:13
Speaker 1: defense logs. You know, last week the starter's game up,
32:16
Speaker 1: a pair of Jamis Winston touchdown passes. Two nice throws
32:19
Speaker 1: by Jamis, give them credit. Decent coverage. The catches were incredible.
32:25
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean we're talking catches that were made
32:28
Speaker 1: that were Yeah, he had interference flags being thrown in.
32:32
Speaker 1: These catches are being made with defenders draped on guys,
32:36
Speaker 1: and it was by Who's that guy? Mark was callaway man.
32:40
Speaker 1: He's apparently had a good camp in New Orleans and
32:43
Speaker 1: he was going against Shaq Griffin. I think, I mean, look,
32:45
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the heck of a day for
32:48
Speaker 1: a young wide receiver that was undrafted and and I'm
32:52
Speaker 1: sure people in New Orleans were going on, who's Michael
32:55
Speaker 1: Thomas who? I don't know if they're saying that, but
32:58
Speaker 1: it certainly been impressed with this young man because that
33:01
Speaker 1: one right there where he was interfered with from a
33:04
Speaker 1: young Tyson Campbell, which you'd like to see a heck
33:07
Speaker 1: of all the better play than that that he had.
33:10
Speaker 1: But but I mean credit credit him the wide receiver
33:13
Speaker 1: from the Saints. He did a really good job, is there.
33:16
Speaker 1: You know, take us through those two touchdown plays though lugs.
33:19
Speaker 1: You know, it was pretty tight coverage on that. Obviously,
33:22
Speaker 1: the interference play, they got the flag, he still caught
33:25
Speaker 1: the ball. And then the one front left corner it
33:26
Speaker 1: was shot Griffin. Uh and still, as urban Meyer said
33:30
Speaker 1: in the post game, to honest, you just gotta finish
33:32
Speaker 1: the play. Well, Shack was involved with both of them. Okay,
33:37
Speaker 1: on one of them it was him alone. He's he's
33:39
Speaker 1: on an island. He's got to be able to cover it,
33:41
Speaker 1: and he's got to be a little bit more over
33:43
Speaker 1: the top. A couple of ways to accomplish that, get
33:45
Speaker 1: a better jam at the line of scrimmage, to interrupt
33:47
Speaker 1: the route in the timing, or to just be able
33:50
Speaker 1: to run faster. The other one where Tyson Campbell was
33:54
Speaker 1: a corner on the opposite side of the field because
33:57
Speaker 1: the safety had to what we call cut on an
34:00
Speaker 1: route on the other side underneath of Griffin. Now Campbell
34:03
Speaker 1: has to replace the safety and run deep. And Campbell's there.
34:07
Speaker 1: They did a good job with plenty of time. But
34:09
Speaker 1: once again, when I talk to you about Tyson Campbell
34:14
Speaker 1: in the off season and gave you this guy and
34:16
Speaker 1: report on him, I said, this guy is the Shadow,
34:19
Speaker 1: and he is. That's that's your nickname. You've claimed it already.
34:22
Speaker 1: You you've cleared it through the Marvel people or Marvel
34:26
Speaker 1: as you call the people. But no, he's he's he's
34:29
Speaker 1: amazing as far as he can stick with anybody. But
34:32
Speaker 1: when the ball is in the air, that's when you
34:35
Speaker 1: need That's where the money starts to flow. That's where
34:38
Speaker 1: you need to make to play. And that's what Tyson
34:41
Speaker 1: Campbell had some struggles with at college and that's where
34:45
Speaker 1: he needs to show improvement here in the pros. If
34:47
Speaker 1: he can show improvement once the ball is almost there,
34:50
Speaker 1: this guy is is another worldly player. Now, I mean,
34:54
Speaker 1: I'm serious, now, world he can be if he can
34:58
Speaker 1: finish well the if he had Cisco okay, the draft picks,
35:05
Speaker 1: if he had his ball skills and finishing ability, this
35:09
Speaker 1: might be one of the best corners in the league period.
35:12
Speaker 1: But that's something that he doesn't have. That he needs
35:14
Speaker 1: to get better at pass rush. No, Josh Allen last week,
35:19
Speaker 1: what do you what do you make of that? I
35:21
Speaker 1: think that this is gonna be a team effort all year.
35:25
Speaker 1: And when I say that they don't have a dominant
35:28
Speaker 1: inside pass rusher, JP, who tell me who the three
35:31
Speaker 1: technique dominant pass rusher is with his It's tough right now.
35:34
Speaker 1: I mean Robertson Harris. Maybe he's not a pass rush
35:40
Speaker 1: How many sacks did he have last year? Ye? Not many? Zero? Yeah?
35:44
Speaker 1: So and he's an outside can I set the edge type?
35:47
Speaker 1: So he's a he's a three four defensive end that
35:49
Speaker 1: you hope that he can find more of a ceiler,
35:51
Speaker 1: how a little higher ceiling. But I mean that's Urban's term.
35:53
Speaker 1: You know, we want to find his ceiling. But the
35:55
Speaker 1: reality is he wasn't a big sack guy to pass. Now.
35:58
Speaker 1: Jahad Ward, who we're looking at right here, is I
36:01
Speaker 1: think is the best inside pass rusher they got. And
36:04
Speaker 1: he's a two hundred ninety pound kind of journeyman. And
36:07
Speaker 1: I like him though, but I mean he plays hard,
36:09
Speaker 1: he's got a little slipperiness to him. He's big, he's
36:13
Speaker 1: you know, even though he's a linebacker and he wears
36:14
Speaker 1: a fifties number. He weighs about two pound maybe mid
36:17
Speaker 1: two eighties. And but besides that, could you get Von
36:21
Speaker 1: Hamilton's pushed the pocket a little bit? Yes, but I'm
36:24
Speaker 1: talking about a dominant inside pass rush or a really
36:27
Speaker 1: good inside pass rush. You don't have one. So somehow
36:30
Speaker 1: or nother, they're gonna have to scheme a little bit
36:32
Speaker 1: and then hope that the edge players and Caleb and
36:35
Speaker 1: chays On and Josh Allen can find a way to pressure.
36:38
Speaker 1: And then when I would also put Smoot in that category,
36:41
Speaker 1: and Smooth can kick down and play a little free technique,
36:44
Speaker 1: and Smoot gives you great effort and he gives you
36:46
Speaker 1: a good solid play, but he's not a dominant pass rusher.
36:49
Speaker 1: So I think that's gonna be something that you know,
36:52
Speaker 1: we talked about it in the preseason games where broadcasting
36:54
Speaker 1: that the defense has to find a way to make
36:57
Speaker 1: impact plays, well, impact plays them from two areas, taking
37:01
Speaker 1: the ball away interceptions and then also pressuring the quarterback
37:04
Speaker 1: which causes a lot of those interceptions. So can you
37:07
Speaker 1: find out I think that that's gonna be kind of
37:09
Speaker 1: a work in progress all year long. But I really
37:11
Speaker 1: believe this defense can be really strong against run. When
37:14
Speaker 1: you're good and strong against run. You got a chance
37:17
Speaker 1: to be better against the past, you know. That was
37:19
Speaker 1: Another topic came up on Tuesday on on Jaguars Today
37:22
Speaker 1: was the run defense. And yes, the statistics in the
37:25
Speaker 1: preseason have been very good, right they they have stopped
37:28
Speaker 1: the run whenever it has been run at them. But
37:30
Speaker 1: consider this best run defense in the National Football League
37:32
Speaker 1: through two preseason games. This well, consider this, like the
37:37
Speaker 1: Browns didn't play any of their starters right a second team.
37:40
Speaker 1: The Saints didn't have Camarin back there in the round.
37:43
Speaker 1: That's correct. Um, so how real is it? I'm not
37:46
Speaker 1: gonna I think it's a little early to say, hey, eureka,
37:50
Speaker 1: it's fixed the run defense. Let's see it in Really,
37:53
Speaker 1: it goes along the same lines of people saying that
37:56
Speaker 1: this offense is terrible. I mean it's Look, it's preseason, Okay,
38:00
Speaker 1: you don't overreact to the offense looking rough, and then
38:06
Speaker 1: you don't overreact to the Jaguars defense being the number
38:10
Speaker 1: one ranked team in the league against the running the preseason.
38:13
Speaker 1: People do, but they shouldn't. Yes, you take everything. There
38:19
Speaker 1: was a there was a term that was used by
38:22
Speaker 1: a former general manager here in His name was Shack
38:25
Speaker 1: Harris and he always said. He said, you know, the
38:28
Speaker 1: one thing you got to do sometimes is slow down,
38:30
Speaker 1: he said, And and sometimes you need to give yourself
38:32
Speaker 1: a speed and ticket to slow down, he said, because that,
38:35
Speaker 1: in other words, you don't overreact. You take everything with
38:38
Speaker 1: kind of a little grain of salt and then kind
38:40
Speaker 1: of see if it repeats itself, and then you can say, Okay,
38:43
Speaker 1: well now we need to react because there's a pattern
38:45
Speaker 1: here and right now. There are no patterns in the
38:48
Speaker 1: preseason that typically can translate roll right over into the
38:50
Speaker 1: regular season. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. We touched
38:54
Speaker 1: on some of the past rush and then the inside
38:56
Speaker 1: guys as we were talking on the practice fields today,
38:59
Speaker 1: and I brought up Caleb and Chasan on the Jahad
39:02
Speaker 1: Wards sack. It looked like he beat the left tackle
39:05
Speaker 1: and pushed the quarterback up in the pocket and Ward
39:08
Speaker 1: was there to make the sack. What kind of play
39:10
Speaker 1: did you see how to chase out? Overall on Monday?
39:12
Speaker 1: Not as good as he had against the Browns. I mean,
39:16
Speaker 1: he made that one play that was pretty good, but
39:18
Speaker 1: I mean overall, I just thought it was just kind
39:21
Speaker 1: of okay. And here's probably one of the reasons why
39:25
Speaker 1: this is why you kind of great things on a
39:27
Speaker 1: scale in the preseason. Who did he face in the
39:30
Speaker 1: Cleveland game? Back up two backup tackles? Who did he
39:34
Speaker 1: face against the Saints, Tehron Armstead and Ram Check. I mean,
39:40
Speaker 1: these are two upper echelon tackles in the National Football
39:44
Speaker 1: League and they did a great job. So, uh, it
39:48
Speaker 1: is what it is. And then here's the thing, the
39:50
Speaker 1: sack that Jowan got or what what offensive line was
39:57
Speaker 1: in at that point. Backups, true backups. Okay, So that's
40:02
Speaker 1: why I'm saying you kind of kind of just take
40:05
Speaker 1: everything with a little bit of a grain of salt
40:08
Speaker 1: and and and you look at the individual play. And
40:11
Speaker 1: that's why I think a lot of times when you
40:12
Speaker 1: when you watch preseason game, I don't watch the scoreboard
40:15
Speaker 1: so much. For me, I'm watching the play. I'm watching
40:18
Speaker 1: individuals play because there's not a scheme so much involved,
40:22
Speaker 1: there's not game planning so much involved. And sometimes, for example,
40:26
Speaker 1: C J. Bethard looked amazing. Right, Look, here's the thing
40:31
Speaker 1: I will First of all, c J. Bethard has warned
40:34
Speaker 1: the opportunity to compete for the backup, and you argue
40:38
Speaker 1: he's leading it and absolutely, okay, but that's part of
40:44
Speaker 1: what you look at and the evaluation process. You also
40:46
Speaker 1: have to evaluate the day in and day out stuff
40:49
Speaker 1: and practice, etcetera. But if you have a quarterback that
40:54
Speaker 1: goes in at that stage of the game and c
40:56
Speaker 1: J is in what year? Now, JP, do you remember
40:59
Speaker 1: what yours? I believe? How about five? Fifth year? Okay?
41:02
Speaker 1: When you have a quarterback who's got some years under
41:04
Speaker 1: his belt in the National Football League, if he's playing
41:06
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter of a preseason game and he
41:08
Speaker 1: doesn't look good, that ain't good. True, that's true, and
41:14
Speaker 1: and that's the one thing that you you will find
41:17
Speaker 1: that's consistent. If you're if you're ever thinking about gambling
41:21
Speaker 1: in the preseason, do they even take gambling bets in
41:23
Speaker 1: the preseason? Yes, if if you're if you're a gambling person,
41:28
Speaker 1: look at the quarterback depth chart, and the teams that
41:31
Speaker 1: have the more veteran talent the backup quarterback positions take
41:35
Speaker 1: them for entertainment purposes only folks. Well, I'm just saying
41:41
Speaker 1: is that they they should have success, and they typically
41:44
Speaker 1: do have success because they're playing against some guys that
41:48
Speaker 1: may or may not be in the National Football League.
41:51
Speaker 1: In two weeks the way it is just saying, speaking
41:54
Speaker 1: of we'll come back and discuss some of the cuts
41:57
Speaker 1: earlier this week, and it is a big week for
42:00

Speaker 1: the checks in Bille Jaguars And it is a stressful time.
45:56
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of guys you know, features careers,
46:00
Speaker 1: rest state. Um. But at the end of the day,
46:02
Speaker 1: I mean, we've been playing this game for a long time.
46:04
Speaker 1: So I just remind guys just to have front. You
46:06
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You play your best when you
46:08
Speaker 1: play three, um, you make the most plays and they
46:11
Speaker 1: had a fun so I think, um, that's easy. The
46:13
Speaker 1: message that I give guys, especially going into the last
46:15
Speaker 1: preseason games, just because, um, it's easy for your mind
46:18
Speaker 1: and just wander into some some negative places. But at
46:21
Speaker 1: the end of day's football, bro, we all trying to
46:23
Speaker 1: just make plays and have fun the same when we
46:25
Speaker 1: were we were younger playing football. So that's one thing
46:27
Speaker 1: I'd like to remind about a guy. Dario gubaal A

Speaker 1: All right, now you're talking ticket to Daily's Place dot com.
47:01
Speaker 1: That'll be a good one time for the injury report
47:04
Speaker 1: presented by Baptist Health, Changing healthcare for good not good
47:08
Speaker 1: news this week, the Dylan Moses still in the active
47:10
Speaker 1: non football injury list. As we say always, that feels
47:13
Speaker 1: like a long term solution. Injured reserve now Travis Eton Jr.
47:18
Speaker 1: Were they foot to injury reported to be list Frank
47:21
Speaker 1: and three wide receivers uninjured deserved Terry Godwin, Josh A.
47:25
Speaker 1: Matter Baby and Tim Jones and on the reserve COVID
47:29
Speaker 1: nineteen list currently Josh Allen and I believe he has
47:33
Speaker 1: to have two negative tests to be able to so
47:38
Speaker 1: that's going to be a little bit. He will be
47:40
Speaker 1: available most likely this week. Well, a couple of things
47:43
Speaker 1: on that list. I mean, first of all, Josh Allen,
47:45
Speaker 1: I hope that at some point he gets vaccinated. I mean,
47:48
Speaker 1: that's the one thing that's concerning about the players that
47:51
Speaker 1: are not vaccinated. There's a higher risk of them not
47:54
Speaker 1: being available on game days. And it's apparent I guess
47:58
Speaker 1: that you know that. I don't know if he's on
48:00
Speaker 1: backs our vaccinated, but if he's unvaccinated, I hope he
48:02
Speaker 1: gets it. The Travis et N thing, Yeah, I've gotten
48:07
Speaker 1: a question a lot obviously since yesterday about what exactly
48:12
Speaker 1: can the Jaguars too can they do to replace Who's
48:15
Speaker 1: going to replace Travis E. T N. The answer is nobody. No,
48:20
Speaker 1: you can't replace a guy that has game breaking speed,
48:25
Speaker 1: that has big playability, that catches the ball, and it
48:31
Speaker 1: just doesn't happen. I mean, that's why he was a
48:33
Speaker 1: first round pick, because he's a rare talent and it's
48:36
Speaker 1: a shame I feel for him. The List Frank injury
48:40
Speaker 1: is something that I had, and it's one of the
48:44
Speaker 1: most painful things I've ever felt, injury wise, that I
48:47
Speaker 1: had in my career. And now to explain it, I
48:50
Speaker 1: don't want you to put your foot on the desk
48:52
Speaker 1: and show me you. I don't need that. But basically
48:55
Speaker 1: it's between the big toe and the second toe, kind
48:59
Speaker 1: of mid foot, right. It's on here, So it's not
49:01
Speaker 1: that big of a deal. If you were if you
49:04
Speaker 1: were to touch the top of your arch, and I
49:08
Speaker 1: have fairly high archers, okay, but if you were to
49:10
Speaker 1: touch the top of the arch bright there in that
49:14
Speaker 1: area lies the Liz Frank area. And my injury happened
49:23
Speaker 1: when uh, one of our one of my fellow defensive
49:27
Speaker 1: lineman got thrown to the ground and he landed and
49:30
Speaker 1: my foot, the toe was down in the ground and
49:33
Speaker 1: then the heel was up and he landed on the
49:36
Speaker 1: top of my my heel and it essentially compressed my foot.
49:41
Speaker 1: It tried to smash my foot, so toes are up
49:45
Speaker 1: and it didn't hurt my toes like getting turf toe
49:47
Speaker 1: or anything, but it all the stress went to the
49:49
Speaker 1: middle of the foot to that was the joint. The
49:51
Speaker 1: Liz Frank joined the Liz Frank if I if you
49:55
Speaker 1: google this, you'll, I think, find that a Liz Frank
49:58
Speaker 1: was named after so guy falls out of a uh uh.
50:03
Speaker 1: They found this injury come with people that fell out
50:05
Speaker 1: of their horse saddles because it's strained or sprained the
50:08
Speaker 1: middle of the foot, and Liz Frank, I guess with
50:11
Speaker 1: some guy that used ride horses or something of that nature.
50:14
Speaker 1: But anyway, I will tell you that I missed the
50:16
Speaker 1: last four games of the season and the inaugural season
50:19
Speaker 1: here in Jacksonville. And then when I they didn't deem
50:23
Speaker 1: that surgery was necessary for mine. They wanted to rest
50:26
Speaker 1: it to see if that would cure it. So then
50:27
Speaker 1: I started. I actually did like nothing, no training, no
50:30
Speaker 1: running or anything until um through January February, than March
50:36
Speaker 1: and then and at some point March started to come
50:38
Speaker 1: back and running and literally, JP, it's still hurt so bad.
50:42
Speaker 1: It took literally like four and a half five months
50:45
Speaker 1: for my foot to heal and so now we're talking
50:49
Speaker 1: about an elite running back that has elite speed. That's
50:51
Speaker 1: the one thing about foots. And I guess he's gonna
50:53
Speaker 1: have surgery, it was reported. So could he heal faster
50:58
Speaker 1: than that with surgery? I don't know. I mean, I'm
51:00
Speaker 1: not a doctor. I just played one on TV on
51:03
Speaker 1: I R before the season. So he's done for the year.
51:05
Speaker 1: But that's a pain. That's a painful, painful injury. And
51:09
Speaker 1: and I think he got kind of landed on in
51:11
Speaker 1: a pile. So that's what happened. We were looking at
51:14
Speaker 1: this today because he had that the pass out in
51:16
Speaker 1: the flat where he kind of slipped down awkwardly and
51:19
Speaker 1: then he kind of looked as he got up. It
51:21
Speaker 1: was an awkward and then he stayed in the game. Yeah,
51:24
Speaker 1: but he stayed in and didn't seem to be limping
51:27
Speaker 1: or anything. Right two plays later and the next place
51:29
Speaker 1: he's kind of running down the field. The play after
51:31
Speaker 1: that was a one yard run up the middle and
51:33
Speaker 1: he came out of that. That's where I'm wondering. Did
51:35
Speaker 1: somebody land on him in that? And it felt like,
51:38
Speaker 1: you know, that was the playofflso that Marvin Jones went
51:40
Speaker 1: off to the sideline and had his shoulder looked at,
51:42
Speaker 1: which is an A C spray, we found out later.
51:45
Speaker 1: So they didn't show E. T. N limping off on
51:47
Speaker 1: television because they were showing Marvin Jones at the time,
51:50
Speaker 1: so we didn't get to see exactly. I see my
51:53
Speaker 1: my thoughters, and I don't know this for a fact
51:54
Speaker 1: that when he went into that pile, somebody landed on
51:57
Speaker 1: his foot and that's what compressed it or uh impacted
52:01
Speaker 1: his foot. But yeah, that's it's unfortunate because you know,
52:03
Speaker 1: I looked. I mean this, We talked about this after
52:06
Speaker 1: the draft and that you know, you you want to
52:07
Speaker 1: have two positions for a young quarterback that are very capable.
52:10
Speaker 1: And those two positions are, first of all, besides the
52:13
Speaker 1: strong running game, I'm talking about in the passing game,
52:16
Speaker 1: the security blanket of a quarterback tight end which the
52:20
Speaker 1: tight end. People always refer to the tight end as
52:23
Speaker 1: kind of a security blanket because that's easy completions. Quarterback
52:26
Speaker 1: can take it and throw it to the tight end
52:29
Speaker 1: five yards or ten yards down the field. Big target, Okay,
52:33
Speaker 1: Tony Gonzalez, right, I mean called a million of those
52:35
Speaker 1: little little what we call choice routes or little stick routes,
52:38
Speaker 1: whatever you want to call them. Well, if the tight
52:42
Speaker 1: end is not supplying those easy completions, what's what's the
52:45
Speaker 1: next best position put? The unique thing with E t
52:53
Speaker 1: N is that this is legitimate, world class speed on
52:57
Speaker 1: a football field that has great open field elusiveness that
53:03
Speaker 1: would have given this team a a hold your breath
53:08
Speaker 1: factor when he catches the ball in space. And at
53:11
Speaker 1: this point you're not gonna be able to find that
53:13
Speaker 1: because that is already signed elsewhere, and they don't let
53:17
Speaker 1: go of that. No, and and and some people said, well,
53:19
Speaker 1: what about Jamal Agnew? Can he do that? Can Tavon
53:22
Speaker 1: Austin do that? Look? Can Philip Dorset provide some of
53:27
Speaker 1: that as a wide receiver? Look? The reality is that
53:30
Speaker 1: some of these guys have been around and bounced around
53:33
Speaker 1: with different teams for a reason. And I'm not trying
53:37
Speaker 1: to criticize the players, because some players will bounce around
53:40
Speaker 1: the league and have different teams under their resume still
53:42
Speaker 1: be really good players, not not great players, but good players.
53:46
Speaker 1: What you were looking for with E t N was greatness.
53:49
Speaker 1: When you draft somebody in the first round, you're looking
53:52
Speaker 1: for greatness and it's a shame that they lost him
53:55
Speaker 1: for the season. I hope he comes back strong, and
53:59
Speaker 1: I know who work hard to do that. Some cuts
54:02
Speaker 1: earlier this week, the Jacks had to be from eight
54:04
Speaker 1: D five to eighty. On Tuesday, Durwin Gray and offensive
54:08
Speaker 1: lineman was cut. Jameson Houston, cornerback and defensive tackle Kenny
54:12
Speaker 1: Randall all gone. The Jacks later in the week claimed
54:16
Speaker 1: offensive lineman but Dara trey Or from the Bears and
54:19
Speaker 1: waved Garrett McGinn the offensive lineman. Trey Or is. I
54:22
Speaker 1: saw him out there to dangle man six seven three
54:25
Speaker 1: twenty is what he's listed. He's about all of it.
54:28
Speaker 1: Well who he he replaced McGinn who McGain had a
54:33
Speaker 1: really rough game, I mean a rough game against the Saints.
54:37
Speaker 1: They you know, for almost all of training camp, McGain
54:41
Speaker 1: had been at right tackle and then because all of
54:45
Speaker 1: a sudden, Cam Robinson can't play walk a little starts
54:48
Speaker 1: at left tackle. Now they need to back up to
54:50
Speaker 1: play left tackle. They move m again over and I
54:52
Speaker 1: just it was outmatched and so um, you know, he
54:58
Speaker 1: would be really good at s lee wrastling Again, have
55:03
Speaker 1: you've seen a guy, a big, long hair guy right,
55:06
Speaker 1: he looks like the Undertaker. I'm serious. This guy needs
55:09
Speaker 1: he needs you know, football doesn't work out under Austin
55:13
Speaker 1: past tour that used to play here. Yeah, he he
55:16
Speaker 1: looked like one to me too. He did big nasty
55:19
Speaker 1: dude with long hair, JP. I'm just telling you Karat
55:23
Speaker 1: m again. He he might have a future in wrastling
55:27
Speaker 1: if he if football doesn't work out, They somebody from
55:31
Speaker 1: a E W needs to call him out because totally
55:35
Speaker 1: he totally has that. That undertaker looked to him. Wow. Yeah,
55:40
Speaker 1: and he's a big guy. I mean, obviously he's a
55:42
Speaker 1: offensive line you know, an athlete. Yeah, they are battling
55:47
Speaker 1: for roster spots. This is the final chance for a
55:49
Speaker 1: lot of guys to get some things on tape. Obviously,
55:52
Speaker 1: the old cliche there thirty one other NFL teams. That
55:56
Speaker 1: doesn't work out here, you might find somewhere else to be.
56:00
Speaker 1: So that's a big cut from eight down to fifty
56:04
Speaker 1: three next Tuesday. And I'm sure there are a lot
56:05
Speaker 1: of guys that are anxious about their opportunity this Sunday. Well,
56:09
Speaker 1: and they should be. And what what you bring up?
56:12
Speaker 1: You bring up the word opportunity. This is the last
56:16
Speaker 1: opportunity for a couple of different things. It's it's the
56:21
Speaker 1: last opportunity for this team to have a game type
56:25
Speaker 1: situation to get ready for the regular season. It's also
56:29
Speaker 1: the last opportunity for some of these guys to get
56:33
Speaker 1: a look to show the coaches what they have. It's
56:37
Speaker 1: also a last opportunity for the coaches to see it
56:40
Speaker 1: because this is the last impression that will be on
56:44
Speaker 1: their imprinted on their minds is they're making the decisions
56:47
Speaker 1: over the weekend. So it's, uh, it's gonna be an
56:51
Speaker 1: interesting cut. I think there are going to be some
56:54
Speaker 1: very difficult decisions. I think at the safety spot, there's
56:58
Speaker 1: gonna be a couple of players that are gonna get
57:00
Speaker 1: let go that are gonna be really good players. And
57:03
Speaker 1: other teams, if I'm watching, if I need a safety,
57:06
Speaker 1: well maybe like the Dallas Cowboys that have some issues
57:09
Speaker 1: with COVID and everything. If I need a safety, I'm
57:11
Speaker 1: looking right here in Jacksonville, and I'm I'm gonna find
57:14
Speaker 1: a guy that they cut that it can come in
57:16
Speaker 1: and start for me somewhere. So and that's I think
57:19
Speaker 1: also brings up that will teams watch the Jaguars maybe
57:24
Speaker 1: at certain positions. But this team will be watching other
57:27
Speaker 1: teams waiver work. Oh yeah, they will be absolutely looking
57:32
Speaker 1: to improve position groups through other teams cuts. And they
57:37
Speaker 1: get the first three weeks of the regular season to
57:40
Speaker 1: take advantage of the first choice because they were the
57:42
Speaker 1: worst team in the league last year. Better take advantage
57:45
Speaker 1: while you have it. If their opportunities to use it.
57:47
Speaker 1: You know, it's not like you're gonna all of a
57:49
Speaker 1: sudden you're gonna make the talent. Let's say you had
57:51
Speaker 1: a number rating system for talent, and let's say, you know,
57:55
Speaker 1: let's say you're at a sixty five. You're not gonna
57:58
Speaker 1: take your overall team of talent to like an eight. Yeah,
58:01
Speaker 1: we're not. We're not playing Madden here. No. Because the
58:05
Speaker 1: guys that are getting cut, for the most part, are
58:07
Speaker 1: getting cut for reasons. But there are teams like the
58:10
Speaker 1: Jaguars that have at that safety services it might have
58:15
Speaker 1: a little surplus, and I think the teams that are
58:17
Speaker 1: smart find a way to manage the rosters to keep
58:21
Speaker 1: that talent together and then to find ways to utilize
58:25
Speaker 1: those players or to gain value from them just besides
58:29
Speaker 1: cutting them. You know, can you trade them to maybe
58:31
Speaker 1: acquire a player at another position that you're delink went at.
58:36
Speaker 1: Can you trade them to acquire a draft pick in
58:39
Speaker 1: the future. I mean, those are all things that are
58:42
Speaker 1: going to be considered. But make no mistake about it.
58:44
Speaker 1: Even though you think or okay, this player, they make cuts, Okay,
58:48
Speaker 1: they get down to fifty three, and the players that
58:51
Speaker 1: are on that fifty three are going, yeah, yeah, I
58:53
Speaker 1: made it. You might want to just hang on for
58:57
Speaker 1: a minute because there will be more transactions that ensue
59:02
Speaker 1: because remember there's a lot of time between this weekend
59:06
Speaker 1: and opening weekend. Yes there is two weeks in fact,
59:10
Speaker 1: that'll do it. For our first hour of Jaguars Happy Hour,
